I'm not real thrilled with what I've got right now... I've painted myself into a corner.

I was just walking a few blocks to get some lunch when I had this great melodic idea just pop into my head: WAY more inspiring than what I've been forcing out so far.
Eureka! I'll scrap the other thing and start on this as soon as I get home!, I thought.

I was trying to hold it in my mind when, like-- ten seconds later an Ice Cream Truck rolls up behind me blaring something like this.

I almost scannered out trying to hold on, but:
Poof-- the idea vanished like a fart in a tornado.

Anyway-- I've always heard that if you can't recall a melody later on, it probably wasn't that great after all.

To put it bluntly, I need a blatant miracle for this NGADM, and if I win this round, I am going to call the results simply miraculous. Until then, I'll grapple along and carry on.

I feel really bad right now...

Even after we end each other in this bloodbath... Do we still be friend to each other?

I was bored, so I started compiling a list of Round 1 submissions. I'll check back in the thread fairly frequently and update the list as quickly as possible.

Sorta, judging from the amount of time Charlemagne actually reigned.

Yeah fyi I do listen to the submissions as soon as they come in because I couldn't possibly do it as thoroughly as I'm planning if I didn't get familiar with the tunes, but don't worry I'll download them all after the deadline and listen to them like hell :)

They left his dead body on the throne for like 50 yrs or something ridiculous.

What, without preserving it? And the French and all their respect for Charlemagne?

They needed those corporal works of mercy even back then..........

On a side note, guys, my submission is about 90% done, and I believe we'll expect to see it up by Sunday.

Camoshark and Thief1337, I will have to ask you in advance to excuse my simplistic French.

Response to Ngadm '12: Round 1 2012-08-10 00:37:01


Just thought I would point this out...

NorskeD's submission was stolen from 'Awezoom' (Victor Vergara). The original song is called 'Ancient Stories Part 2' and you can find it HERE on Awezoom's soundcloud set. Look for a song called 'Ancient Stories 2 The Green Valley'

The original song was in Fasttracker's .xm file format, which can be downloaded or played back with Winamp. You can find the .xm file HERE

And I had so much respect for Norske...

WHHHHHHY?! :'o

Seriously... Pretty soon we're gonna have to petition Tom to change the name of the site to "Thiefgrounds".

I am not amused.

Holy crap why would you steal a song for the first round in an audio contest.

Response to Ngadm '12: Round 1 2012-08-10 01:13:58


I won't put him down as DQ'ed on my news post just yet, even though the evidence has been presented; we should hear what (if anything) he has to say in his defense.

Is it just a thematic similarity, or is it blatantly a midi/tracker rip? Because there have been times that I've written wholly original works, then later noticed similarities to music I've heard in the past. (In film and TV, it's called "Producer's Memory," and it happens when a pitch is given and at some point in the future the producer unwittingly makes suggestions on another project that takes ideas from the older pitch.)
